Shan Revan Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 *private* With the war coming to an end, post war analysis became the priority. Overall the operations were a success and operated as expected however it became clear that aerial supremacy, whilst achieved, came at a cost higher than expected. A collective decision was reached to create a joint program, tasked with developing a new aerial supremacy fighter. To achieve this goal, an new organisation, FP Aviation has been created to manage the program. The UFE and Omniscient Empire would be the main participanpants in the program, developing the avionics and airframe respectively however most of the FP would be contributing something. OOC: We'll be jointly developing a new supremacy fighter in this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triyun Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 (edited) Hanoi National Research Lab had been working on creating a Generation 7 Avionics system for the new fighter. The first task was the micronization of the equipment. The chip set needed to be contained on a much smaller area in order to accommodate for greater processing power that these avionics would need to handle.

Manetheren Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 Two Tahoan corporations, Boeing and Lockheed Martin, will be participating in the program. Most nations in the world use aircraft designed by these two corporations, including many nations Air Forces which use the F-22, F-35 and F/A-18 model fighters. The two corporations will be working to develop an advanced new engine system, incorporating the latest thrust vectoring and microthrusters, giving an aircraft practical 360 degree movement. The possibility for a VTOL version is in the works as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Litler Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 I see this as nothing more than paper tigers baring their claws. Tunsheim will not be contributing any aircraft or pilots. Why should we show off our superior aeronautical technology and secret flight maneuvers? For you to attempt to try to reverse engineer said resources? No, thank you. You tin pot dictators can show off your toys to one another while the Tunsheim Luftwuffe patrols our skies at home like it should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This allowed for a 76% increase in computing power over Generation 6 Avionics. Using this space, the speed for lock ons would be lowered as well as the overall sensor sensitivity and detection ranges. This next step was sent to the team at Qinghua University and Hanoi National Research Laboratory for work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manetheren Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 (edited) Engineers at Northrop Grumman Aerospace have made a technical breakthrough with thrust vectoring. Along with advanced, 90o nozzles capable of influencing the yaw and pitch of the aircraft, newly developed Fluid Injection Nozzles can divert thrust via fluid effects. Tests show that air forced into a jet engine exhaust stream can deflect thrust up to 15 degrees. Such nozzles are desirable for their lower mass and cost (up to 50% less), lessened inertia (for faster, stronger control response), lesser complexity (mechanically simpler, no moving parts or surfaces) and smaller radar cross section for stealth. Research into the applicability of microthrusters in combat aircraft is ongoning. Boeing and Lockheed Martin are working on an engine capable of delivering the neccessary requirements for speed, range and performance. Eight possible designs are under consideration and will be developed fully for full-scale testing.

Triyun Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 The UFE has sent private observers to work with the Tahoeans on the new engine designs. This is both for upgrading the F-50 and F-47 and for concentrating on the new fighter's avionics and $@pit systems at such high speeds. UFE engineers will be conducting thorough tests to determine what levels of calibration will be necessary with these new engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triyun Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 (edited) Classified Development Adjustments have been completed. The new helmet has begun testing with both new B models of the F-47 and F-50 and with the simulator for the new prototype fighter. Advanced displays and support equipment allow pilots to engage in higher G-force situations and be able to engage in air to air at much higher speeds. Additionally the system is being transferred into the Oracle Eye air-to-ground systems. [1]Micronize Circuitry *[2]Increase Range and Shorten Lock on Times*[3]Adjust for ultrahigh velocity combat*[4]Develop Advanced Stealth and Counter Measure Defeating Radar[5]Additional Final touches Research has begun into developing countermeasure systems, as well as defeating enemy defensive systems. Additionally testing has begun on new advanced anti-air missiles with superior kill ranges, velocity, and manuverability, as well as resistance to countermeasures. These new systems will be joint-naboo UFE in origin as they integrate the latest in UFE avionics, with Naboo's proven record of having the best anti-air (both ground and air) missiles in the world.

Shan Revan Posted January 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Much progress had been made on the airframe with stages one through to four complete, with five and six simultaneously underway and nearing completion. It was ahead of schedule and would be ready for the other components to be fitted into the frame as they were completed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triyun Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 The stealth detection systems, countermeasures, and the final touches were placed on the $@pit and avionics system.

Triyun Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Test 1 Engine Testing Tibet, UFE It was a dawn as two teams were rushing from their fighters, the three hundred kilometer radius had been cleared out and the quarintine of Tibetan air space remained in effect. Pilots from the Naboo 1st Squadron 2nd Wing and the 2nd Imperial Guard Squadron 3rd Wing of the United Francoist Empire were taking off from two bases on either side of the large area. Naboo Squadron Markings UFE Squadron Markings The units would begin field testing the units engines over Qinghai and Tibetan territory running exercises for testing the engines top speed, super cruise, thrust vectoring, and air frame endurance at super sonic speeds.

Triyun Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 (edited) Testing Complete: Unit Name: F-65 Vanguard Avionics: Generation 7 (S) (shorter lock on times, longer range, defeats stealth, also advanced jamming of enemy missiles) * Crew: 1 Length: 19.8m * Wingspan: 15.2m * Height: 4.5m * Powerplant: 2x 190KN 3D thrust vectoring turbofans Performance: * Maximum safe speed: Mach 3.1 * Service ceiling 23,000m * Maximum g-load: -4.0/+10.5 g Armament * Guns: 1 x 30 mm cannon in starboard wing root, 640 rounds * Air to Air: a variety of highly effective long to short range missiles will be available * Air to Ground: A limited variety of guided munitions available. Units showed themselves to be capable of high maneuvering more so than any unit they went up against, and their air frames were able to endure intense G-forces. Their large size gave them significant fire power, thus allowing them to defend a greater amount of air space per fighter. The new missiles tested with the unit have an extremely high kill range and effectiveness level, allowing them to knock out many fighters before they have a chance to get close. Production is to begin immediately. Edited February 12, 2009 by Triyun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
